Who remembers? It started innocently enough, sharing, anticipating (http://groups.google.com/group/rec.arts.movies/browse_thread/thread/372b7df360f80c0b)... followed by pleasant (http://groups.google.com/group/rec.arts.movies/browse_thread/thread/bfb3f36ee45afce2) discussion (http://groups.google.com/group/rec.arts.movies/browse_thread/thread/def76bd6df880173), but then Ken Greer from Ball State crashed (http://groups.google.com/group/rec.arts.movies/browse_thread/thread/a7052d81dd11304c) the party.
Hey I'm very sorry to interrupt this most fascinating and stimulating conversation you people are having about "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade," but: WHO CARES
I have never seen so many over-analytical dumbasses in one place in my entire life. I mean, like who gives a **** if some damn airplane had an automatic starter, if the swastika on one officer's lapel was backwards and its significance to us, if River Phoenix has longer hair than he should in 1912, or if a German butler knew who Mickey Mouse was, etc. I mean, do you feel more manly because you can point out a few meaningless indiscrepancies? Do you feel the movie was absolutely ruined because of these "major mistakes?" Did you, like, pay six bucks so you could sit down and take notes of this movie and figure out every type of airplane, tank, car, uniform, etc..and its historic relevance? If i wanted to do that i'd take a cinema 101 class for Christ's sake!!!
It's a goddamn MOVIE!!!! You're supposed to have FUN watching it!!!!! What's your problem? Don't you like having FUN or must you analyze every single goddamn thing that presents itself to you? You go to a movie to escape reality and enjoy it, not compare it to real life!!!
"Like gee, do you think they used Me-109's? Let's consult Jane's Book of Aircraft and find out! Plus we can find out if the Nazi's occupied Egypt in 1936 and their swastika's were backwards and they used a pre-Nazi era tank not manufactured in Germany, if the ****in' plane has an automatic starter or not!" "Oh, ok"
Oh ooooooohhhhh!!!! Get a real life you people! stop nitpicking! don't you have anything better to do with your lives? Oh when was the last time you were on a real date? when's the last time you kissed a girl????????? 'nuff said.
Come back and fight like a man, Ken! I'll be waiting.
